Thinking about spine surgery? It’s one of the biggest health decisions you’ll ever make. Before moving forward, consider the power of a second opinion.

A second opinion can confirm your diagnosis and treatment plan, present less invasive alternatives, and give you peace of mind knowing you’ve explored every option.

Spine surgery isn’t just about fixing pain—it’s about protecting your mobility, independence, and quality of life. Taking the time to hear another expert’s perspective can make all the difference.

If you or someone you love is facing spine surgery, don’t be afraid to ask questions, compare options, and take control of your health journey.

To schedule an appointment with one of our experts, call Highlands Neurosurgery at (423) 844-5400.

What Is Spinal Fusion?

Spinal fusion is a surgical procedure that joins two or more vertebrae together to stabilize the spine, reduce pain, and improve mobility. It’s often recommended for conditions like scoliosis, herniated discs, spinal fractures, or chronic back pain that hasn’t improved with other treatments.

Recovery: Healing takes time—patients may need physical therapy, lifestyle adjustments, and patience as the spine strengthens. But with proper care, many regain independence and quality of life.

Spinal fusion isn’t just about surgery—it’s about reclaiming movement, comfort, and confidence. If you or a loved one is considering it, talk to one of our spine specialists to explore the best options.

To learn more or schedule an appointment, call Highlands Neurosurgery at (423) 844-5400.
